UNITED NATIONS Authentic Nick Bjugstad Jersey , March 21 (Xinhua) -- UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon on Friday condemned "heinous attacks" targeting Nowruz celebrations in northeast Syria, which reportedly left up to 100 people killed and injured, including women and children.

"Initial report suggest that two separate bombings killed and injured up to 100 persons, including women and children," said a statement issued here by Ban's spokesman on Friday night. "These heinous attacks took place during a holiday that is customarily a time for Kurdish communities to come together to share their hopes for the new year."

The twin attacks targeted civilian festival gatherings in the al-Mufti community in the predominantly Kurdish province of al-Hasakah.

According to the statement Authentic Connor Brickley Jersey , Ban took note of the reports linking the attacks to the Islamic State extremist group and stressed that the radicals should not be allowed to stir up ethnic divisions in Syria, where the terrorists have been active since 2012.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a UK-based watchdog group, said the blasts were carried out by a suicide bomber with the Islamic State group.

Clashes have recently been raging between the IS and the Kurdish fighters of the People's Protection Units in the countryside of al-Hasakah after the Kurdish fighters dislodged the IS from the key border city of Ayn al-Arab, or Kobane Authentic Jonathan Huberdeau Jersey , earlier this year.

Kurds in Syria, Iran, Turkey and Lebanon and Iranians mark Nowruz on March 21 every year. The feast, which symbolizes purification of the soul, dates back to the pre-Islamic religion of Zoroastrianism.

"The secretary-general extends his deepest condolences to the bereaved families and wishes a speedy recovery to the injured Authentic Aaron Ekblad Jersey ," the statement said.

"The terrorist organization's despicable agenda includes efforts to incite sectarian and ethnic division among Syria's diverse communities," the statement said, referring to the IS. "It must not be allowed to succeed."

The IS has seized vast areas in Iraq and Syria, proclaiming an Islamic caliphate on all the territories under its control and forcing thousands of people, mostly member of ethnic and religious minorities Authentic Keith Yandle Jersey , to flee.

"The secretary-general reiterates his condemnation of all acts of violence against civilians in Syria, and his demand that all sides in this brutal conflict stop the use of indiscriminate weapons in populated areas," the statement said.

Earlier Friday, Syrian state news agency SANA also reported a "terrorist" attack in al-Hasakah that killed and wounded many civilians and damaged homes, shops and cars.

Al-Hasakah is a strategic province near Syria's borders with Iraq and Turkey. The IS controls several parts of the province while fighters from the Kurdish People's Protection Units hold the provincial capital Authentic Roberto Luongo Jersey , which is also called al-Hasakah.

The Kurdish fighters are sworn enemies of the IS, which they expelled from the border town of Kobane in January after four months of fierce fighting with help from allied airstrikes. Prafulla Dahanukar is one of the senior most woman artists of India with her career spanning more than fifty three years. Working from abstract landscapes, Prafulla began to work on repetitive forms, as she explored rendering subtle changes of the shades in color. Over the last decade, her heavy textural strokes have given way to more expressive transitions of color on her canvases. She has evolved her own distinctive style of painting.

She has explored the concept of permanence. And she finally came to the truth that it is Space and only Space that is permanent and timeless. Everything else has a life cycle. She used her mastery of colors and shades to create depth in her paintings to bring out the essence of peaceful space. There is no threat to the existence of space and therefore it has the essential ingredient of peace and tranquility.

I would like the reader to look at her art. While there are many sites like flickr Cheap Jared McCann Jersey , Webshots and Wikimedia Commons which display her paintings, the easiest would be to download her painting photo book from the link given below.

Now that you have seen her paintings, we can discuss her work more meaningfully. First of all you can observe that in each of her paintings there is one dominant color. The painting may be predominantly red, or green or blue or yellow or white. The other color is generally dark brown with light dominating the painting. The second character of the painting is that you can visually see horizontal bands or lines in the painting.

These lines stretch from one side of the canvas to the other. It is these bands that show that the painting is not of any confined area but denotes space which outflows on all the four sides of the canvas. The vastness of the space is thus denoted. The third feature that you notice about the painting is that it has repetitive forms spread horizontally. The forms could be interpreted as time lapse art which show the moving position of objects over a long period of time. They show movement and dynamic character of the contents of space. The fourth feature that you can see is that the horizontal bands are lighter and darker of subtle shades and as you watch them the painting shows the depth with some parts appearing nearer and some parts farther away. She paints for peace in her paintings to make her painting wonderful to live with. No matter how many times you see it, glance it, or ogle it, you never tire of it. Every time it gives you a qu.
